Well, they worship two to three gods, too, so go figure.

 Quote:Love is the Greatest of the Christian Virtues. You could point something like this out to your sister. Quote:do not do as they do, for they do not practice what they teach. One Jesus Christ there, offering some helpful advice

Well they're three, except they're one but three in one and yet three separate beings all part of one divine substance so it's still just one even though it's three...

"The trinity can be equated to having your cake and eating it too." ... -Lucent, trying to defend the Trinity concept "(Yahweh's) actions are good because (Yahweh) is the ultimate standard of goodness. That’s not begging the question" ... -Statler Waldorf, Christian apologist 
Heretic, doesn't it feel rather gross to have to trot out christian scripture to save an atheist from their fucked up strictures?

I appreciate the irony of it, but yes, it makes me feel kind of dirty. Fucking christians! "Great spirits have often encountered violent opposition from weak minds."

She'll just come back with this: Quote:25 Large crowds were traveling with Jesus, and turning to them he said: 26 “If anyone comes to me and does not hate father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters—yes, even their own life—such a person cannot be my disciple. 27 And whoever does not carry their cross and follow me cannot be my disciple. These fuckers can always find something to back up their outrageous beliefs.
It helps when everything you believe depends on a 2-3000 year old tome that was written in languages you cannot read. "Interpretation" is everything to a make-believer.

I don't believe my sister is smart enough to come back with any witty remark, or even anything other than "Bible, something something, it's bad, wrong" or something like that. She's really not the smartest.
Other than that, I feel like such a wimp, but I really miss that damn cat. :X  (July 17, 2011 at 5:43 pm)8BitAtheist Wrote: Other than that, I feel like such a wimp... Why do you feel like a wimp? Is it because you feel like you should stand up to your sister? If she is as religious as you say and stupid to boot, there would be no persuading her to change her mind.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
